ITC has an intimate atmosphere due to its size and students are treated as individuals while smaller class sizes enable lots of individual tutor time and support.

Average Day
ITC classes are held Monday to Friday for 4 hours a day, exact hours will depend on the intake and course chosen. This allows plenty of time for study outside of class and to work part time if you chose. Most of our students are working part time and the college can help you find work through our CV workshop and Careers page on our website. Local tourism providers let us know when they have vacancies, which we put on our website for students to apply for.
We hold Student Events approximately every 4-6 weeks which are a lot of fun and we have International Student Lunches so you can meet international students from other classes. Each course has team building days, cultural visits and work experience opportunities. For a look at Student Life at ITC, check out our college Facebook page: www.facebook.com/ITCNZ.

Accommodation
International students enjoy Auckland’s high quality living conditions. There are a range of different options available; you can be part of a local family with ‘homestay’ accommodation where you’ll learn how to live like the kiwis do in your home away from home. Or you may prefer the independence of a student hostel or living with New Zealand students in apartment accommodation. Another option is to rent a house or flat with friends.

Your living costs will depend on your lifestyle and your chosen accommodation. It is really important to research temporary accommodation options before you leave home. Some students choose to book a couple weeks accommodation with a backpackers or youth hostel as a temporary base while they are looking for somewhere more permanent. ITC can recommend some accommodation places for you to contact where past students have stayed as well.
